Rigo, Streetwise Mentor

Legendary Creature — Cat Citizen

Rigo enters with a shield counter on it. (If it would be dealt damage or destroyed, remove a shield counter from it instead.)
Whenever you attack a player or planeswalker with one or more creatures with power 1 or less, draw a card.

Legality

Rulings (6)

  • Removing a shield counter in this way isn't the same as regenerating a creature.
  • A creature with a shield counter on it may still be destroyed by state-based actions if it has damage marked on it equal to its toughness or has been dealt unpreventable damage by a source with deathtouch.
  • If a permanent that would be dealt damage has more than one shield counter on it, that damage is prevented and only one shield counter is removed.
  • "Shield" is not an ability that creatures have and shield counters are not keyword counters. If a creature with a shield counter loses its abilities, the shield counter will still protect it as normal.
  • If a permanent with a shield counter is dealt unpreventable damage, that damage will be dealt and a shield counter will still be removed.
  • Shield counters don't prevent players from sacrificing creatures.
